Absolutely Wonderful - There was a bit of a mixup with where the tour guide was supposed to pick us up, we ended up waiting for about an hour. However, once the driver arrived, he was very attentive to all of our needs. One of my granddaughters is in a wheelchair, and he was very much mindful of her needs. We appreciate him, and, enjoyed the tour. He made sure that we did not wait in lines to see, and do what it was that, we came for. We would definitely book through Viator again on any future excursions.

Mahogany Bay Adventure - We had a wonderful tour guide. He knew all the secret spots. He was very knowledgeable about his islands history. He also kept away the annoying vendors and beggers. The monkeys and sloths were amazing. Also, the iguana farm was a tremendous amount of fun...

Great visits with animals and a beautiful beach! - We had a great experience. When you get off the boat you have to walk out into the town to meet them but it all went smoothly. Our driver was very nice and told us lots about the island. He let us set the time to return to the boat and had us there in plenty of time. The iguana farm and animal habitats were all really good experiences and out driver came everywhere with to make sure we got what we needed. My only negative would be that the tour included the beach and when we drove to the beach we had to pay $10 per adult to access the beach or $15 if we wanted some shade. It took most of the cash we had given we had thought this would be covered in the excursion fee. But the beach was lovely with beautiful sand and lots of places to eat and shop. Compared with the expensive tours from the cruise this was a huge saving and we got to do everything we wanted on our schedule. We would recommend it to anyone!

Not as expected - We enjoyed the iguana park and the sloth and monkey park. I feel like maybe we were scammed out of $50 for beach access. The description says "beach" but our driver said we could go to the public beach or go to a private beach for $15/adult and $10/kids which was supposed to be much nicer with security and great food. We had peddlers all over the beach and I never saw "security". I was not impressed.

It was sketchy at best! Really sucked !! - This was extremely disorganized. Not once did anyone ask for my ticket, never did anyone ask what my excursion included. There was no host. As soon as we arrived on site the driver disappeared and we never saw him again! Then they took us to a beach to snorkel and the boat was a death trap. The driver of the boat was not interested in anyone never asked about experience levels or mentioned safety precautions. We had 45 minutes in the water and then returned to shore where we docked at a pier that was falling apart. I would never recommend this business! They are not dependable nor safe. Find another tour with a company who cares about you experience!!
